Hello

Cubital tunnel is formed by the medial epicondyle,ulnar collateral ligament, and two heads of flexor carpi ulnaris and it transmits ulnar nerve and superior ulnar collateral artery.

Cubital tunnel syndrome happens because of compression of the ulnar nerve in  the cubital tunnel behind the medial epicondyle.

It causes numbness and tingling in the ring finger and the little finger.
